Capacitors are like very simple batteries. They're electronic parts of your motherboard that hold a charge. You know if they're bulging or leaking by taking the back of your iMac off and looking for them.

One of the symptoms of the issue is graphical anomalies like the ones you are having. Unfortunately, fixing this issue yourself is a bit tricky. Since you're in South America, I'm not sure what else to tell you.
